Same here!

Have any of you succeeded in installing the driver @VintageAppleMac.com uploaded? The readme says to run it from a boot disk with System 6.0.7 on it. That doesn't seem to be enough though, it needs Network Software stuff (like Responder) but I'm not sure which version. I tried the using Network...

I'm not affiliated with vintageapplemac.com and I don't know if this is ok to post, but they are trying to raise some money to buy a whole stack of CDs for the purpose of archiving: http://www.vintageapplemac.com/fundraiser-to-buy-and-archive-3-year-collection-of-apple-sales-marketing-cds/ Just...

Hi bibilit, yeah, I've recapped the logic board (and all the other boards) as well.

After recapping the screen (which didn’t show an image before) I see it flash the diagonal lines screen and sometimes even a gray-with-cursor screen. After that it just shows a black screen with the backlight on. On pressing the reset button it goes straight to the black screen, only when I...

Hi all, I was recapping an SE's Rev A analog board and found a diode soldered between CR4 and a resistor I can't see the designation of, and a capacitor between that diode and R26. Is that a modification to basically mod it into a Rev B? Can anyone shed some light on  to what this does exactly...

haha, no I know :) just got me on the right track.

@techknight, you are my hero. After desoldering the three caps below J12 (just so I could have a better look at the traces that run underneath them I spotted 1 going between C8 and J12 that had the protective layer removed and that had probably shorted C8. cleaned everything up again, put a...

oh wait, that's not the SWIM, that's GLUE. The trace runs between the right channel sony chip and the GLUE chip. SWIM is UJ11 of course. Still, I'll check the area around C9-10.

@MikeatOSX I scrolled (ha) through the Dead Mac Scrolls but couldn't find this particular issue. @techknight I'm pretty positive, according to schematics I could find it is called BRST and I'm guessing that means something-reset? Thanks for pointing me to the SWIM (UI8, so it could still be my...

I did some more research into the issue (good chime, gray pattern, no pointer), but so far haven't found that particular combination. The ones I did find are: [no chime, gray patter, no pointer] -> RP2 filter [good chime, gray pattern, pointer] -> RP10 filter Both measure (using...

Hi all, I have three SE/30s, one works flawlessly (Mac A), one boots into the OS but has sound has issues (Mac B, I have another topic about this one), but my issue is with the latest one (Mac C): When I got it, I did a superficial check and turned it on and it booted (without chime) into the...

I have a few compact Macs that are missing various screws and I'd like to make them complete again. Does anyone have details on size, thread count, etc on the types of mounting screws used in (at least) the SE, SE/30 and Classic? So, these are the two different ones outside (silver and black...

I think that's just flux.

@Johnnya101, Yeah I thought the same! Thanks again, they fit extremely well!

The spinning part can get pushed in and it then catches on the housing, you should be able to wiggle it free. I don’t remember if you need to disassemble most of it before you can reach that part, but I know I did. I used one of those iPhone repair kit plectrums to get between the housing and...

She loves 'em!

The only obvious thing I see is the solder joints on J4 (?), they seem to be cracked. Have you read chapters 5 and 6 of Macintosh Repair & Upgrade Secrets? I think those might be helpful here. Looking at it some more, maybe a lot more solder joints could use a touch up, the flyback included.

The yellow stuff is normal, are you referring to that?

Ooh I like the black! I got an FDHD myself last week and it too had a Maxell battery, but thankfully it hadn't exploded!
